I dunno bout anywhere else but all walmarts here do is stock back to the future and kong stuff.

Walmart inventory differs significantly all over the country.
Live in CA/TX/FL and sometimes NY, then your have a much higher chance of getting stock.

Live in the midwest or north, NECA is honestly not stocked here in the US. NECA has yet to address it.

This isn't just NECA either. Hasbro, Mcfarlane, and Mattel aren't stocked either.

Sure you can blame the pandemic, but this was occurring prior and Target and others has been able to put up some kind of inventory.

Can't even blame scalpers as the tags would still be up.

Back on NECA for a moment. I heard they had reps that go to each Target and stock the shelves. If that's true then I don't know why the Walmart a few streets over is empty.

All this wouldn't be so bad if Walmart would just put inventory online.

I've seen 1 thing TMNT in San Diego Walmarts in the last 2 years, we get nothing here vs. the population around.

Except for a few instances, like the b & w Kongs, Target doesn't actually buy any NECA products. It is basically there on a consignment type deal. That's why they hired a 3rd party to merchandise the stuff. On the other hand, Walmart does buy the stock and it's up to their incredibly motivated workers to put it out. Hence, empty shelves.

I don't know, I live in Missouri and see NECA stuff all the time. A lot of it not selling out, too, I know of one Walmart stocked on Yoshi vs Saki sets right now and saw another clearancing out Super Shredders. It really depends.

That's the problem it's just so horribly inconsistent. Some people have the POV that it's just one one of two Walmarts and not whole cities/states having problems.

It's sad as it doesn't need to be that way. Not every store can get inventory, I get it. They need to make their online options better. How are 3rd party resellers the only option on Walmarts online website for a Walmart exclusive?

I never going to see a clearance in my state because it was never getting stocked.

I don't think my Walmarts have restocked their NECA section in months. In fact, they don't even keep it organized.
